This is a great book if you have struggled with binge/overeating. It is probably great for other disordered eating as well, but I can't relate to other conditions. An eating disorder counselor recommended it to me and at first I was wary of this book as it seemed metaphysical or more ethereal than practical to me. Don't let the cover or description mislead you, it is a practical, helpful, and insightful book. After reading a borrowed copy, I have to have my own to go back and refer to over and over again.

An interesting book. Wasn't right for me, however for those struggling with food issues and images, I think it will speak to you.
